GoodBye Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Damn skippy! I know there are a lot of people who don't get into the show, but think about it......Throughout the course of the show, somone who right now is only 'known' by maybe their church, family/friends, or maybe a small town, will end up a MILLIONAIRE celebrity. Hell, most seasons it's happened to more than one of them. To me that's just fascinating. Look at Kelly Clarkson.....how many hits has she had on the radio? How many times have you seen her perform at some big event? She's a multi-millionaire because of AI! Look at Clay Aiken.....he was a total GEEK who taught school. Now he's a millionaire and a celebrity with a successful recording career. I think people just lose sight of how amazing this really is.....I can't help but be totally into it, guilty pleasure or not! 571914[/snapback] Right on!
GoodBye Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Crazy Dave... WTF??? 571771[/snapback] He was one of my favorites. I also got a kick out of the air-headed girl...the suntan one. Don't think she was all there.
Rico Posted January 18, 2006 Author Posted January 18, 2006 Next week has to be Austin, part of what they showed tonight was from UT Ausitn. :-) 571907[/snapback] It's on again tomorrow night at 8! (only 1 hour though)Since I will be in a bar outside Madison Square Garden waiting for the Stones to hit the stage , I shall have to record it...might even record Lost too!

GoodBye Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 I like the 2nd set of twins. 572043[/snapback] Yeah, i thought they were better than the first set.
30dive Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Did Simon (who I like) really have to tell that guy to shave, wear a dress and become a female impersonater? I understand that these people understand that they run the risk of getting laid out by the judges but I really thought that this fell off the cruel scale.

Puhonix Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Yeah, i thought they were better than the first set. 572415[/snapback] I gotta say the first twins were better, and rocking with the Temptations... come on, that's great!
MikeG Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 the Paris Hilton wannabe was by far the funniest part of the show... Simon had to tell her to talk about her tan three times before she knew what he was saying... and even then she was clueless. Bringing her mom in was classic. People like that amaze me and confirm that American society is continuing it's downward spiral. (further proof is in the pics of the 'hottie' boys from another thread)
LabattBlue Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 AI...must see TV. I can't remember who it was, but there was one person that didn't get two notes out of their mouth before Simon said to stop. Also, what was up with the one young blonde going off with the F bombs and giving the camera the finger. The good(or bad) news of the night was Paula looked sober. Great Great TV!!!!
LabattBlue Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 If we keep one Idol thread for the entire season, how many pages will it end up at?
BuffaloBud Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 AI...must see TV. I can't remember who it was, but there was one person that didn't get two notes out of their mouth before Simon said to stop. 572569[/snapback] It was the guy dressed up as the Statue of Liberty. Singing "New York, New York".
bobblehead Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 I'm not ready for this freak show again, although I was peeved that the Statue of Liberty guy was not given a full read. He kept it real, unlike the hillbilly Michael Bolton guy last year, who wore leather pants.
LabattBlue Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 It was the guy dressed up as the Statue of Liberty. Singing "New York, New York". 572575[/snapback] Thanks! The look on his face was priceless as he stared at Simon while heading for the door.
Puhonix Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Thanks! The look on his face was priceless as he stared at Simon while heading for the door. 572580[/snapback] The first two notes werent even that bad. OTOH I thought crazy Dave was a mess, voice, and leaps alike. weird....
The Poojer Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 I don't watch the show and never have, but how do you know the favorite already? A woman from Ireland, now living in the USA is the favorite to win it all. 571555[/snapback]
KD in CA Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Ok, I don't watch this nonsense and hopefully never will, but a friend of mine was watching it last night and recognized one of the terrible singers who got booted as a NYC stripper that he knows. She had told him a few months back that she was trying out for the show, and there she was last night on TV!
Buford T. Justice Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I was all pumped to watch this last night, then I went to the bathroom and realized I pee standing up.
